Quote and Song of the Day!

quote and song of the day

"You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection" Buddha once said. It was also once said that we are our own worst critic. In todays' harsh world we are always putting people down, and ourselves. This may sound kind of cheesy but when others are putting you down or your not giving youself any credit and feel down say this, "I am a good person, trying to do the best I can. I will remember this and be nice to myself as I try to be nice to others."

People like to take us down and constantly remind us of our flaws. However, we are human, we make mistakes, don't ever forget that but don't let it ruin your outlook on life.

Today's song is, "Perfect," by Pink. I'm posting a more acoustic version of her song. (Btw, the guys' guitar is so pretty, I want it!-Sorry, musician coming out of me)

Lyrics:

Made a wrong turn
Once or twice
Dug my way out
Blood and fire
Bad decisions
That's alright
Welcome to my silly life
Mistreated, misplaced, missunderstood
Miss, no way it's all good
It didn't slow me down
Mistaken
Always second guessing
Underestimated
Look, I'm still around…

Pretty, pretty please
Don't you ever, ever feel
Like you're less than
less than perfect
Pretty, pretty please
If you ever, ever feel
Like you're nothing
You are perfect to me

You're so mean
When you talk
About yourself
You are wrong
Change the voices
In your head
Make them like you
Instead
So complicated
Look how big you'll make it
Filled with so much hatred
Such a tired game
It's enough
I've done all i can think of
Chased down all my demons
see you do the same

Pretty, pretty please
Don't you ever, ever feel
Like you're less than
less than perfect
Pretty, pretty please
If you ever, ever feel
Like you're nothing
You are perfect to me

The whole world stares while i swallow the fear
The only thing i should be drinking is an ice cold beer
So cool in lying and we tried tried tried
But we try too hard, it's a waste of my time
Done looking for the critics, cuz they're everywhere
They don't like my genes, they don't get my hair
Strange ourselves and we do it all the time
Why do we do that?
Why do I do that?
Why do I do that?

Ooh, pretty pretty pretty,
Pretty pretty please don't you ever ever feel
Like you're less than
less than perfect
Pretty pretty please if you ever ever feel
Like you're nothing
you are perfect to me
You're perfect
You're perfect to me
Pretty, pretty please if you ever ever feel
like you're less than, less than perfect
Pretty, pretty please if you ever ever feel
like you're nothing
you are perfect to me
